ContactCommon support advice
To answer common questions faster and keep my support work low, here are some general ways to go with your questions. You might in any case want to try the Google site search to find the information you’re looking for.
Caution! Please read the information about the status of this software on the home page.
I have found a bug/problem! 
- Is it a bug or intended (and maybe documented) behaviour?
- You first need to make sure you have correctly installed the board software, meet the requirements and followed the installation steps. If you upgraded the board software, make sure you didn’t miss any files.
- Did you modify the code? Try to revert these changes or check if the problem you encountered also exists with a clean installation. Make sure it’s really Unclassified NewsBoard’s code causing the error.
- Which board version are you using? You should in any case upgrade to the latest available stable version. If the problem persists, you should try again with the latest development snapshot, maybe the bug has already been fixed by now. If the problem only exists with the latest development version, go back to an older version, until you have the latest stable release.
- Please take a look at the Troubleshooting section of the documentation. It describes some problems that occur more often. Your issue may be mentioned there.
- So now, there’s a problem that needs to be fixed. Is it already added to the bug tracker? There’s a search function that might help you finding such a task entry. You can read about the current task status there. If you feel this is of special importance to you, you can start a discussion on the forums if there is none yet.
- Nothing found? Is the issue already discussed on the forums? There’s a search function that might help you finding such a topic. If not, you should create one in the “Bug reports” forum and describe the exact problem (don’t forget the actual error message) with your environment (board/database/PHP versions and the like).
I want a new (or modified) feature!
- Is that new feature or modification reasonable to what the Unclassified NewsBoard was originally designed for?
- Is it already implemented in newer versions? You should in any case upgrade to the latest available stable version. If it’s still not there/changed, you should try again with the latest development snapshot. The change log might help you with a list of what was changed in previous versions. Some features are currently implemented experimental, which means you will probably have to change a configuration option to enable it. The change log should inform you about that.
- It’s not in yet? Is it already added to the bug tracker? There’s a search function that might help you finding such a task entry. You can read about the current task status there. If you feel this is of special importance to you, you can start a discussion on the forums if there is none yet.
- Nothing found? Is there already a discussion about it on the forums? There’s a search function that might help you finding such a topic. If not, you should create one in the “Suggestions” forum and explain exactly what you’d like to see added or changed.
